Dear Karen,
It is so like you to think of all of us in the midst of so much yourself. I hope you have some time tomorrow with your beasutiful girls.
I think any day can be Mother's Day. Who needs the retailers to tell us when it is (so we spend money in an otherwise "quiet time")? I've always encouraged my kids to make something for me - a special card or breakfast in bed. Not on any particular day of the year but just when they want to express their appreciation.
So I really hope you have some special time with your girls soon. I haven't been posting much. I've got a cold coming on so I feel like crap, and lots of other stuff too (internal and external) which has been stirring things up for me. Keep on keeping on, even when the road gets bumpy or the mountain track gets steep.
I light the candle each night, and the fire is going. Thinking of you and holding you in my prayers.
You too @Former-Member , @Alessandra1992 , @PeppiPatty , @sara , @Uggbootdiva. Blessings for tomorrow and every day.
Hope for nurturing relationships endures...
Kindest regards,
Kristin

Big hugs to you too Karen.
I submitted graciously to being fed cold toast in bed for breakfast by my 7yo I took my younger ones out to afternoon tea at the bakery in Warby today. My treat.
It's been raining heaps, and the river is very full. The forecast is for rain and... more rain. Maybe not raining on Tuesday and Friday. Thinking of you my friend and hoping you are out soon.
Hope for a walk in the sunshine on the rail trail endures...
Kindest regards,
Kristin
